Series regular Angela Bassett also posted a touching message on social media.

And Gabourey Sidibe posted on Twitter: 'So sorry to hear of the passing of Rose Siggins. I pray for her children.'

'Please consider helping to support her family at this difficult time. Two more spectacular children never existed,' Paulson posted on social media along with a link to a GoFundMe page set up in Siggins' memory.

Siggins' management team said in a statement that 'all funds raised will now be directed to final expenses and the continuing support of her children.'

The actress had not let her lifelong illness stop her achieving her goals - whether that be starring on the small screen, or starting a family.

'Getting around is slower these days,' she told the Huffington Post back in 2012.

'A lot of people with disabilities feel that life owes them something, and I was raised in a way that no one owes you a dime. The world doesn’t owe you anything.

'My personal opinion is, get up and go for it.'

Red carpet: Rose used a skateboard to get around. She used it on the red carpet at Hollywood's Chinese Theatre last year

She is the second cast member of AHS: Freak Show to pass away suddenly.

Earlier this year her co-star Ben Woolf, who played Meep, died in a Los Angeles hospital aged 34.

The 4 feet, four inch-tall actor suffered a stroke after he was hit on the head by a car wing mirror while crossing a street in Hollywood.
